(A = 174,613.64) (NEED b-1, b-2, c-1, c-2)

Cavo Corporation expects an EBIT of $29,550 every year forever. The company currently has no debt, and its cost of equity is 11 percent. The corporate tax rate is 35 percent.

Explanation / Answer

Net Income = EBIT( 1 -tax) = 29550 * ( 1 -0.35) = 19467.50

Value of unlevered Firm = 19467.50 / 0.11 = 176977.27

value of levered firm = Value of unlevered Firm + Debt * Tax Rate

Case 1: value of levered firm = 176977.27 + 176977.27 * 50% * 35% = 207948.30

Case 2: value of levered firm = 176977.27 + 176977.27 * 100% * 35% = 238919.32

Case 3: value of levered firm = 176977.27 + 207948.30 * 50% * 35% = 213368.22

Case 4: value of levered firm = 176977.27 + 238919.32 * 100% * 35% = 260599
